How forest weddings work
Forestry SA allows wedding ceremonies in selected forest areas across South Australia.
These are not traditional venues — which is exactly why couples love them.
They’re raw, natural, and beautifully simple.
But there are a few things to know:
• Wedding ceremonies are generally available from April to November
• Receptions are not permitted on Forestry SA land
• Locations are approved case-by-case
• Total Fire Ban days can affect access
• A backup plan is required
It’s not complicated — just different.
Permits & approvals
To get married in a Forestry SA location, you’ll need:
• A Forestry SA wedding/event approval
• A commercial photography permit
You can organise this directly yourself.
Or…
We can handle it for you as part of your booking (small admin fee).
Either way — we’ll guide you through it so nothing gets missed.
Forest wedding locations
Each forest has its own feel — from dense pine forests to open clearings and rugged natural landscapes.

Make it more than just a ceremony
Some Forestry SA locations offer:
• Cottages
• Huts
• Campgrounds
• Nearby accommodation
This means your wedding can feel more like an experience — not just a quick ceremony.
Stay the night.
Slow it down.
Make it yours.
Keep it simple
Most couples don’t want to organise multiple suppliers for something this simple.
That’s why we do it differently.
Our core package includes:
• Celebrant
• Photography
• One calm, experienced team
No overthinking.
No juggling vendors.
No stress.
Just a relaxed, meaningful ceremony — done properly.

A few important things
Forest weddings are beautiful — but they do come with a few realities:
• No receptions on Forestry SA land
• Weather and fire conditions can affect access
• Permits are required before your date is confirmed
• Some locations are remote or require light walking
If you’re easygoing and flexible — this works perfectly.
If you want rigid timelines and full control — probably not your thing.
You don’t need a big venue to get married.
You just need the right place — and the right people.
Thinking about a forest wedding?
If this feels like your kind of day — simple, quiet, and a bit different — we’ll help you make it happen.
No pressure.
No complicated process.
Just a conversation to start.
